aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Daily evening newspapers in 2015 = 389

Percentage decrease from 2000 to 2015 = 46.5%

To find:

Number of newspapers in 2000 = ?

Solution:

Let the number of newspapers in 2000 = $x$

When 46.5% of the total newspapers in 2000 ( $x$ ) is subtracted from the total newspapers in 2000 ( $x$ ), it will be equal to the number of newspapers in 2015.

Making the equation as per the given statement:

$x-x\times 46.5\%=389\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{100x-46.5x}{100}=389\\\Rightarrow 53.5x=38900\\\Rightarrow x\approx \bold{727}$

Therefore, the answer is:

There were 727 newspapers in 2000.
